MEDAN - Police arrested BAS (41) who tortured Sampe Raja to death. Sampe Raja's wife was also persecuted.

"The BAS suspect, a resident of Sihusapi Village, Simanindo District, Samosir Regency, North Sumatra, violated Article 351 of the Criminal Code with a maximum prison sentence of 2 years and 8 months in prison," said Samosir Police Chief AKBP Josua Tampubolon, quoted by Antara, Monday, November 8.

The police chief said that the suspect also abused the victim, Kostaria Simarmata, resulting in severe injuries and was being treated at the Hadrians Sinaga Hospital in Pangururan.

The persecution took place on Saturday, October 16 at the victim's house. At that time, the victim Kostaria and her husband, Sampe Raja, were eating with the suspect in the house of BAS.

"Then after finishing eating, the victim Sampe Raja told the suspect to take medicine, but BAS did not answer," he said.

Then Sampe asked Kostaria to leave the house because the suspect was angry. Costaria came out of the house and went to the front yard.

Then Kostaria was worried about Sampe, and went back into the house. When he entered the house, he saw the suspect hitting the back of Sampe's head repeatedly with a piece of wood that had been used by the handle of a hoe.

Kostaria tried to disentangle the suspect, but Kostaria was also beaten repeatedly until he was covered in blood and ran to save himself asking the residents for help.

"Residents who came to Kostaria's house, and saw Sampe's victim lying face down in the yard, didn't move anymore and his head was covered with grass," said the Police Chief.

The perpetrators were also arrested with evidence of machetes, axes, wooden sticks and metal tripe points.
